Although I'm sure the (many) fans are already well aware and actively watching the hours tick away to launch, this serves as a quick heads up that the much anticipated prequel to Deus Ex, Human Revolution is scheduled for release at midnight tonight (or Tuesday morning we should say) for the U.S. folks (other regions to follow soon after).

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is set in the year 2027 and follows the exploits of Adam Jensen when the practice of human augmentation is still in its infancy. The developer, Eidos Montreal has been promising to deliver in spades right from the get go, hopefully making up for what was a not quite so impressive sequel, Invisible War.

So, what are you waiting for? If you haven't already, start pre-loading it via Steam now and get ready for action!
